ERIC B. BECKER

M.S., Architectural Engineering, University of Texas \\ Ph.D., Civil Engineering, University of California at Berkeley Dr. Becker has been a member of the UT-Austin aerospace engineering and engineering mechanics faculty since 1966. His major areas of interest are in the development and application of finite element methods for non-linear problems in solid mechanics. His current research program involves study of elastomeric components, application of finite element methods to material damage at large strain, structural design and analysis of TOKAMAK vacuum vessels, and the modeling of coupled electromagnetic-mechanical systems.
